Contents 1 Character History 1.1 In 1.2 In 1.3 In 1.4 In 2 Notes Character History In While en route to the fictitious city of Angel Grove, California, T.J., who was traveling with Cassie Chan, falls victim to an attack by the villain . Because of his bravery and his assistance in saving others (including Tommy Oliver), he was hand-picked to be the successor to Tommy, the Red Turbo Ranger, in forming the new team of Turbo Power Rangers. Although he was a capable team leader, the Turbo powers were lost when Divatox had managed to overrun the Power Rangers' Power Chamber. In Making his way into space to pursue Divatox, he meets Andros, the Red Space Ranger from a distant planet. Although initially receptive of their presence, Andros would later give the four remaining Turbo Power Rangers new powers that matched his own, and T.J. would become the Blue Space Ranger and second in command of the team, and in turn give leadership of the team to Andros. He would remain the Blue Space Ranger for the remainder of the series. In He was also in the episodes that were crossovers between the two teams (Lost Galaxy and Space). In T.J. made his final appearance in the ' episode Forever Red, where he, as the Red Turbo Ranger, and nine other Red Rangers defeated the remnants of the Machine Empire, the main villains of '. It was unknown how he reobtains his Red Ranger powers, and whether his powers as the Blue Space Ranger remain. Fans of Power Rangers argue that the powers that he had were those of the robotic duplicate, gotten from Lightning Cruiser just like Justin, the Blue Turbo Ranger, or that they were reconstructed in the same fashion of that of the original Red Power Ranger. Like many of the other Power Rangers, it is unknown what had happened to him after Forever Red, with many fans of the series claiming that T.J. continues to serve as the second-in-command to Andros, despite having returned to earth. Notes According to the episode Passing the Torch, Part 1, he wanted to be a Power Ranger since he was a kid. Was a huge fan of baseball. Was the only Red Ranger who actually liked Bulk and Skull. T.J. was the first known African American Red Ranger (as well as the first known African American Ranger team leader). This would be repeated with Jack Landors in . T.J. was the first African American Blue Ranger, and the second Blue Ranger to be potrayed by an African-American actor. While Cestro of Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers was potrayed by an African American actor, he was intended to be an alien from the planet Aquitar. It should also be noted that the full name was never referenced in Turbo or Space. However, T.J. was introduced by his full name, Theodore Jay Jarvis Johnson, by Carter Grayson, the Red Ranger of ', in the ' episode Forever Red. To that introduction he responded, "Please, call me T.J." It should be noted that during , a robotic duplicate of T.J. was created, complete with Ranger powers. The fate of these robotic Power Rangers remains unknown, and may have been erased from continuity. |- style="text-align: center;" |- style="text-align: center;" |- style="text-align: center;" Power Rangers Characters by Era and Generation General: List of characters | Minor characters Ranger Designations: Red Ranger > Yellow Ranger | Blue Ranger | Black/Green Ranger | Pink/White Ranger | Other Rangers and Ranger-like Allies Zordon I Jason Lee Scott > Trini Kwan | Zack Taylor | Kimberly Hart | Billy Cranston | Tommy Oliver II Rocky DeSantos > Adam Park | Aisha Campbell III-IV Katherine Hillard > Ninjor | Aquitian Rangers | Tanya Sloan | Trey of Triforia V-VI Justin Stewart > Blue Senturion | Carlos Vallertes | Ashley Hammond | Cassie Chan | T.J.
